Description
4 3 Subtractive Decoding Sample Point (SDSP) The SDSP field determines the DEVSEL sample
point after which an inactive DEVSEL results in the PCEB forwarding the unclaimed PCI cycle to the
EISA Bus (subtractive decoding) This setting should match the slowest device in the system When
the MEMCS function is enabled MEMCS is sampled as well as an early indication of an eventual
DEVSEL

This register controls the operation of the PCEB’s internal PCI arbiter The register enables disables auto-
PEREQ controls the master retry timer enables disables CPU bus parking controls bus lock and enables
disables the guaranteed access time (GAT) mode for EISA ISA accesses
NOTE
1 For proper system operation the master retry timer (bits 4 3 ) must not be disabled This field
defaults to 00 (disabled) and must be program to either 01 10 or 11
2 The PCMC Host bridge device requires that bit 7 be set to 1 (default) However other chip sets
might need to have this function disabled to provide more optimum performance for EISA subsys-
tems This functionality is built-in to prevent starvation of PCI agents (in particular the host bridge
i e CPU) when EISA masters are performing transactions in the GAT mode If this function is dis-
abled the host bridge must be capable of generating the PCI Bus request even when the Host Bus is
not controlled by the CPU (CPU tri-stated all Host Bus signals or even only address bus in response
to HOLD AHOLD) The CPU pin that provides an indication of a request for the external bus (e g
after cache miss) can be used by the host bridge to generate the request for the PCI Bus during GAT
mode operations even when no address lines are driven by the CPU
